rhythmworx Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 ^^^Ditto That in my hands would be mush. Rob, you may want to try the opposite fully exhaling and clearing your lungs, I read somewhere it's better for keeping still as when you hold it in, your heartbeats make your body twitch.

Rob8891 Posted September 27, 2014 Share Posted September 27, 2014 Thanks for the advice (I could have done with that when swimming today....must remember exhale under water, inhale ABOVE water...) Luckily, there were a lot of conveniently sized posts around the resort, so I didn't have go too blue in the face This was a nice spot for a break after a long day on the bike.

guzzi850m2 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Here is one with my new RX100 M3, love it, it's quite good for high ISOs compared to it's tinny size. ISO 800 1/4 sec f1.8 24mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzzi850m2 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 As usually I can't get the size right, given up now, hence therefore not posting many pix here anymore, sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't give up. We are a tolerant bunch, really . I use FastStone Photo Resizer to resize my photos....it's idiot-proof (even I can use it! ) It is a free download. Maybe it could solve your problems? Good luck and keep on posting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kan Win Posted September 30, 2014 Author Share Posted September 30, 2014 I'm still in my anti-tripod phase For long exposure shots and I have done one or more in my time, a tripod and remote works well . Win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuijimmy Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 It's something I always forget, to take along is a tripod.... it means stopping to much too on a bike to set up ! Here's another hand held .... I thought about stopping to see what one gets with a Romantic night, for 200 baht.... (Maenam, Samui) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes RX100 M3, this camera is a little gem, I absolute love it man. No slower shutter speed for me than that or the images are getting blurred, but on my Stylus 1 I can go to about 0.6 sec which tells you a lot about the image stabilizer.

rhythmworx Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I'm might treat myself to either a used RX100 or a new GoPro 4 black by xmas time. I always like to treat myself at that time of year, it helps counteract my severe christmas time loathing when at home in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunshine51 Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 ^^^ RW...Ditto! I'm not from the UK but have lived & worked there & the "colonies" for many a year. My loathing at Christmas time comes from folks coming over, eating the food, quaffing the booze, getting drunk and then the arguments start. I do miss a good Christmas pudding though.....
